Wytex's recent post about his new S&W Model 57 got me to thinking about my love for good wheel guns. Thought I'd share a few of mine with the THF with a little background on some of them. (Picture is a little distorted in wide angle view)

Post up some of your favorites. Let's see 'em.

Long live the wheel gun.

Very cool collection sir.

S&W K frame .22LR, 1940's era. Was my Grandfathers, I've had it 40 years. Still shoot it often.

Nice to have that history with your .22 .

Sweet collection 83, it will take a bit to get all of ours out. Not sure where a couple might be hiding actually.
We're lacking on S&Ws though I know that. Gave a nice .22 to our son down in Texas so the 57 is our only S&W now.

Wonderful K-frame S&W. I have a few handed down to me as well. They are certainly special for sure. Thanks for the pictures.

Great collection 83

I'm down to just SA's but I'm always looking for another Revo, maybe a Python in my near future.

Very nice sir

Old k frame 10-6 Smith and Wesson has been around more years than I remember. The only wheel gun I own.

Those are some dang nice wheelguns, gents!

A few of mine:



S&W Airweight .38 SPL that has ridden many miles in my front pocket.



S&W Performance Center 686+



Ruger Super Redhawk in 10mm. Companion to my Glock G40.

I really like wheel guns and this thread is chalk full of some beauties!
I got this K frame Mod 10-2 M&P 38 Special from my Father-In-Law. It was made in 1961 and had only been shot a few times. Smooth as butter!


The family favorite is my Great Grandfathers Colt. He was a Deputy Sheriff in Gainesville and this was his sidearm

Here's another, my Dad's duty weapon for 30 years. This K Frame in .38 was bought in 1963 when he hired on and carried the duration of his time as a Police Officer. I shoot this one from time to time also. Stories, a lot of stories with this one.

Great bunch of revolvers fellas! Let's see some more....

No stories behind them. But I’m a big fan of Dan Wesson revolvers. Here’s just a few of them.

I have a model 19 performance center, model 65 4”, model 49 humpback and just bought a model 65 3”. Don’t have pictures of the 65 4” and it is my favorite revolver. Now saving for a model66.

From left to right, Ruger sp101, Ruger Blackhawk, Ruger Vaquero, Hi Standard Sentinel, and S&W j Frame. All 3 Rugers are 357. Hi standard is a 9 shot .22, and the S&W was my Grandfather's carry when he was Police Cheif in Pawhuska.

S&W Model 28-2 Highway Patrolman.





Ruger Super Blackhawk 44 mag



A few other Rugers

Ruger LCRX - .22 LR


Ruger LCRX - .22 Mag


Ruger LCRX - .38 Spl


Ruger LCRX - .357 Mag

Brushed stainless Python and a mean model 27.

I believe this our complete arsenal of revolvers. Never realized how much we favor stainless til now, lol.

Great looking bunch of revolvers everybody! Y'all made me go out and order another one yesterday!

Freedom Arms 44 Magnum and my S&W 27-2. Has there been a more strictly business looking handgun?

KISS revolver. very cool
